The Ice Maker Wouldn't Dispense Ice
First we ordered a new solenoid. . . The little piece that opens and closes whenever you push the button to dispense ice. That definitely needed to be replaced, and it was easy to do. However, that didn't fix the problem, so we looked and looked at the assembly and decided that a spring was missing. We ordered the spring, and when it arrived, we found that it matched exactly one that was already on the assembly. :-) Not the problem. Thirty minutes later we figured it out,. The diagrams at part select were not helpful with this. It was a matter of figuring out how the magnetic weight fit into the assembly. That's all it was! Now we have an extra spring for the future.

Filter was one year old and needed to be replaced
Open refridgerator door, remove old filter by hand in a counterclockwise direction. Insert new filter turning clockwise. Close refridgerator door and fill a glass with water from dispenser. This will remove air and ensure water to free flow. Check for leaks.

Ice cubes position makes crushed ice
After installing the new solenoid and hooking it up as per the wiring diagram still the ice maker crushes the ice cubes in both "crushed ice" and "ice cubes" pisition (solenoid would not produce the magnetic field). Instead it is getting very hot.

So, i need an additinal advise.

Ice maker auger wouldn't rotate, motor worked fine
To replace the broken drive coupling on the motor end of the auger requires sliding the ice bin out of the freezer section of the refrigerator. Remove the ice cubes and let it thaw out for a few minutes. Remove five screws holding the front face on the ice bin to remove the ice auger. slip the new drive coupling over the end of the auger. reassemble and replace the face plate with the five screws. Slide the ice bin back in the freezer. Less than fifteen minutes it was finished.

Ice Stripper was broke off, leaving the mounting tabs still inside their respected spaces in the ice-maker
Had to remove the ice-maker (also easier than trying to work inside the freezer letting all the cold air out). A few mounting screws and an electrical connection in the back. After it was out you will need to remove the cover (not the superficial cover that just pries off) where the gear is behind it, just far enough so you can get the mounting tabs on the ice-stripper in. In order to to move this cover out, after removing the screws (the obvious), you'll need needle nose pliers to ever so slightly squeeze the plastic clips together that hold the plastic movable bracket and the metal ice level arm/switch, so it will pop out. Once you have room to put the ice stripper in, it should just all snap back together, then proceed in reverse to put it all back together.

The door of the water fountain that seals the ice compartment broke off
Carefully removed all of the screws to get to the compartment which housed the broken circular door that seals the ice compartment after ice has been delivered via the water fountain on the front of the refrigerator. Disconnected the wire harnesses (labeled as I went) and pulled the unit off of the fridge. It would probably be wise to have shut the power to the fridge off, although I did not. The problem was that the circular door that snaps back into place after delivering ice had severed one of the tabs that holds it in place. I discarded the old door and slipped the new door into place. There is an electromagnetic plunger that is responsible for the door opening when ice is being delivered (the system is magnetized and it draws the plunger in, thereby opening the door) and then snaps back into place once the ice button is released. I found the best way to get this back into place was to put the door (with its harness) into the "open" position and then gently force the plunger into place. Put everything together and all was good.

Fan motor would not start on it's own
Removed back cover to see motor and the fan. Un plug the fan motor from the fan. Used 1/4in socket to remove 3 screws, then unscrewed plastic mounting plate off of motor, put plate back on new motor, used pliers to remove nut from fan blade,and rubber washer replaced to new motor. Then put new motor back in. Make sure motor is centered back in hole and fan does not hit. The brackets (3) that hold motor in place will swing so it can be centered in hole. Spin blade to make sure blade not hitting and is centered. Now plug fan motor back in. Just that simple.
